I have had an enjoyable experience at Our Lady Of Lourdes. The best part of attending has been the friendliness among faculty and students, however, I do not appreciate the hypocritical rules regarding students and their appearance. I would like to see dress code rules that both students and staff must follow.

I was a student at OLL for four years and I had an amazing experience. I would say that the best part of their curriculum is the college-readiness. I was very prepared for college and now go to an amazing college that I love. I would say that the worst part of their curriculum was the heavy enforcement of rules. Of course this varies from person to person, but I believe that rules are flexible, especially in high school. They believed rules are never meant to be broken or bent.

The teaches are very helpful and only want the best for you. They are always there to help you succeed. The environment sets you up for success. There is a lot of focus on college prep from the academic perspective but there isn't a lot of guidance for the college process.

I advise against enrolling your children in this school. The administration displays poor conduct and racial bias, evident in their minimal minority staff and unjust treatment of my grandson, who is Hispanic. Despite his honesty regarding a vape found in his possession, which he explained belonged t...

The administration and staff have no real life experience, many graduated from this high school went to college and came back as teachers or staff to the school. Guidance counselor moonlights as a bar tender on nights and weekends that are supposed to be helping kids with their future

Lourdes is AMAZING! 1 million percent recommend! I came from public school and had a hard time shifting to such a different environment, but I can honestly say it challenged me and encouraged so much growth with in! There is so much genuine care for each individual’s well being and education and the...
